screenwriter and director alex garland hopes it will do more than that. it is an anti—war movie, but it's really got two other focuses. one is political and the other is aboutjournalism. it's a story about journalists and journalism, why we need them and what they do. but it's also asking a question, which is why is good journalism not getting the traction that it gets? what's gone wrong? and then very similar sort of questions about sort of polarised populist politics as well, extremist politics. but no effort is made to explain the ideological forces that led to the civil war. the journalists who define the film's narrative don't mention their own political views or thoughts on why the country has descended into civil war. there is no political context to this action film. this is really an audience movie. it's not telling you what to think. it's not giving you sides. it's really about you, which i think is unique. and alex garland's claim that this film is also aboutjournalists and why they are so valuable doesn't satisfy some who've seen the movie.

>> that's exactly right, alex. jack smith overnight filing the first of its kind motion in this specific case, the classified documents case, alluding of course or concerning the search that happened at mar-a-lago two years ago in august 2022, when authorities grabbed hundreds of classified documents that were in the possession of the former president illegally. so you have overnight jack smith actually asking the judge overseeing that case, judge eileen cannon, to limit, to impose a sort of modified gag order on what donald trump can and cannot say when it comes to law enforcement, in terms of the public statements that he makes. this comes of course after this week the former president falsely insinuated that president joe biden may have ordered an assassination attempt on him when fbi agents were conducting that search. he said, quote, that bidens locked and loaded, referring to that specific remark. so of course you have merrick garland and the fbi pushing back on these claims that trump is making her. take a l
